Burn a small portion of WLFI supply

Put independence in the world Forward a proposal to Tuesday to be implemented A token buyback and burn program using protocols owned by the protocol in an effort to drive away the lack and price.
The team claims the proposal that a token burn will “increase the percentage of relative ownership of the long-term holders,” while eliminating circulation tokens “held by participants who are not focused on WLFI’s long-term growth.”
The token dropped more than 31% from the opening high on its launch day, as short sellers loaded the token, a problem intended by the token Burn.

Token launch shows market needs to be mature
Kevin Rusher, founder of the real-world asset borrowing and lending the RAAC ecosystem, said in a statement after the launch, he thinks the hype around the WLFI token shows crypto still struggle to grow.
He argues that the true longevity of the ecosystem can be determined by adoption of the institution, not “celebrities or short-term hype.”

“The concern, however, is that such apparent imaginary trading will continue to damage crypto trust, and that is the opposite of what it takes to come up with a truly elastic, long-term financial system,” Rusher added.
Meanwhile, Ptašinskas’s Mangchier, head of Marketing and Community on the Web3 Identity and Rewards Platform Galxe, said the launch of the token has sent Ethereum gas fees “to the Stratosphere,” which he thinks should be a warning to builders that “our work is still far from over.”
“If a trading spike could suddenly push the fees to a $ 200 transfer to $ 50, there is still a job needed to prepare the crypto ecosystem for the basic adoption that will undoubtedly come,” he said.
